sorry if wasn't specific enough. I find all your suggestions useful but I'm leaning towards Tom's initial suggestion of skipping it. It's completely redundant IMO. Nora, you can see the article here: http://www.balcanicooperazione.it/article/articleview/10724/... It's a favour I'm doing to a friend, so I'm quite free in my translation choices.

OK, that's helpful.

I think what you need here is some stock phraseology used in features journalism – IF that's appropriate. Is there a byline? If so, how about 'Joe Bloggs investigates' or 'Joe Blogs learns more' or 'Joe Bloggs gives the full picture'? It'd be a gloss, but ultimately (as Tom suggests) it's meaningless anyway – filler.

If there's no byline, how about simply 'Read on'?

Let me know what kind of article we're talking about, and I'll turn one of these into a real answer :)

I assumed it was a letter. Nevertheless I still stand by my suggestion. It may seem OK in Italian but in English it's absurd to publish an article introduced by the statement "we have received the following article and are pleased to publish it."

I have decided to make the preceding comment and I hope you are pleased to read it :)

hi Nora, it's the introduction of an article:

Eccesso di memoria, eccesso di oblio -

Il lavoro dell'ADL di Prijedor per la ristrutturazione del sistema museale del Kozara, in Bosnia Erzegovina. Il coinvolgimento di musei ed istituti storici di Serbia, Croazia e Italia. Riceviamo e volentieri pubblichiamo.

...e poi inizia l'articolo. Grazie!

Hi Cecilia, could you give a bit more information about the original text so we could distinguish between a general and a publishing context?
Grazie!
